During the raid, vice officers recovered 13.5 grams of crystal methamphetamine, or “ice,” 9.4 grams of dry marijuana, 0.6 grams of “crack” cocaine, 6 soma pills and packets, smoking pipes, a scale and containers. They also recovered a glass cup that was in the process of converting methamphetamine to “ice” with a gross weight of 44.1 grams.

In addition, the officers seized $1,921 in cash for forfeiture.

The suspects, a woman, 45, and two men, 43 and 39, were released pending further investigation.

The vice raid was the second in little more than a week in which officers arrested suspects for possession of crystal methamphetamine, or “ice.”

On Monday, October 9, 2000, vice officers raided a residence at 120 Kaieie Place in Hilo and arrested eight men and four women. They also seized a variety of illicit drugs.
